Resistance in steering wheel

I have been noticing increased resistance in the steering wheel of my '02 S60 and I was curious as to whether anybody else had seen this before. I have not noticed a clear pattern yet, but when going at a good speed (50km/h+) the wheel moves normally over a small range then it encounters noticeably ...

Re: Blower motor noise

I have the motor out but I am not sure where to lubricate. The fan wheel cover the top of the motor, so only the trailer bearing at the bottom of the motor is accessible. Any thoughts? :?

I found a kit to replace the brushes in the motor - Has anybody ever performed this repair? Does it do the tric...

02 S60 T5 front control arm bushing replacement

Does anybody have any insight on replacing the front control arm bushings? Is this do-able at home, and what tools are required (press?).

Am I better off replacing the entire arms instead of giving the bushings a try?

Thank you
